CCLC Professional Development Workshop: Climate Change’s Impact on Climate Justice
August 18 @ 4:00 pm - August 19 @ 4:00 pm
New Jersey defines “environmental justice communities” by three criteria: presence in a community of concern; the presence of disproportionate environmental and public health stressors; and the absence or lack of environmental and public health benefits. Our morning “Coffee and Climate Science” presentation will explore the impacts and solutions for some of our home state’s key environmental issues. Afternoon field activities will focus on a dive into some of NJ’s most vulnerable communities and the stakeholders that are impacted. Educators will leave with materials to turnkey lessons back to any classroom setting.
